Opening Segment: We read some listener feedback and Juniper complains about how hard it is to get men to talk about spirituality in a meaningful way. Then we focus on the Oil Disaster going on in the Gulf of Mexico. We wonder at how things will change as the world starts to run out of oil. There is a moment of (not quite) silence for reflection and prayer on the Disaster.

Opening Segment Opening Music: “The Holly Bears a Berry” by Shira Kammen The wine from Argentina: Trapiche Varientals Malbec 2009 http://www.trapiche.com.ar/english/index.html And the incense is yet more sandalwood as Juni hasn’t had time to make more smudge sticks. We read some listener feedback and gush about that. Then Bren feels sad and lonely being the only Pagan philosophy professor in the world. Bren also asks about teaching via his forum. Juniper tries to rant about how cake can be intellectual and spiritual at the same time, but winds up rambling instead.
